Gardeners will have plenty of choices at the seventh annual Quarryville Library benefit auction. Owners of 15 local greenhouses will be donating plants to this year's sale, organizer Ron Althoff said last week. "We expect to have annuals, perennials, and some shrubs and trees," he said. "We're stressing flowers this year. We always do well with them."

A selection of paintings and other works by local artists will be among the featured items at the 6th annual Quarryville Library benefit auction. Three paintings by Charles X. Carlson were donated by the late Diane Gicker. Two other Carlson paintings have been donated by other area residents.
